Nesmuk Chinese Chef's Knives

Nesmuk | Chinese Chef's Knives

The Chinese Chef's Knife from Nesmuk perfectly combines tradition and innovation: It is the result of a successful reinterpretation of a 3500-year-old basic knife form and was developed for this special variant in collaboration with top Chinese chefs. This all-rounder can handle a large portion of the cutting tasks in the kitchen. Characteristic of the Chinese chef's knife is the specially shaped, wide blade with its typical curvature on the top and the cutting edge that curves towards the tip. This allows for effortless rocking cuts, and the knife is also ideal for the so-called chopping, also known as a pressure cut, of food. With the help of the wide blade, the cut goods can then be transported from the board to the pot.
